The First Adman: Thomas Bish and the Birth of Modern Advertising
Author: Gary Hicks
Publisher: Victorian Secrets
ISBN: 1906469423
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
The First Adman reveals the untold story of how modern advertising was pioneered 200 years ago by the entrepreneur, self-publicist and dodgy Member of Parliament, Thomas Bish. Royalty and politicians courted this early media star and society figure, who was one of the best-known men in the land and allegedly more famous than the prime minister himself. Bish’s promotional creativity helped the old state lottery raise the equivalent of £2 billion for good causes, also bringing him great wealth. Hiring the essayist Charles Lamb as a copywriter and George Cruikshank to illustrate his advertisements, Bish professionalised ad campaigns. Techniques he pioneered include spin-doctoring, graphic design, modern typography, direct marketing, and even early market research. Unfortunately, his talents did not prevent him from being expelled from both the Stock Exchange and the House of Commons. Drawing on previously inaccessible contemporary sources, Gary Hicks resurrects the Bish brand, as famous in its day as Coca-Cola is today, and explains how it started a publicity revolution. This is an entertaining and rollicking tale of an eccentric marketing genius whose extraordinary legacy survives in modern mass media. Includes illustrations by political cartoonist Simon Groves
